The baroque roots of flamenco and Corsican mystery!

Where does all the Iberian folk music, that always seems to have been there, come from? Where does the flamenco have its roots? What did the long journey of the fandango from baroque up to nowadays look like? From castle and hut, from streets and celebration, filtered through the fiery sounding body of the baroque guitar, which provides the frantic rythms its special colour – new but old and oh so catchy…Stockholm Early Music Festival presents the multifaceted Uruguayan born baroque guitarist Rafael Bonavita, Friday 6 June at 6 PM in the Finnish Church. 24 hours later, Saturday 7 June at the same time and place/6 PM also in the Finnish Church it is time for another matchless Mediterranian experience; Corsican polyphonic singing tradition, springing from the depths of history. The six emotive male voices of A Filetta are messengers of an archaic polyphony, that has been existing on this Mediterranean island for hundreds, maybe thousands of years. A concertante reflection of deep roots and a strong identity, with an openness to the world.
